Can anyone tell me which brake pads are correct replacements for the Filel mechanical disk brakes that come on an Eahora X5?
Lots of pads on Amazon, but I can't find a cross reference anywhere. Thanks!

take the pads out and look at them. then give us a pic.
Here we are; 1 7/64" x 3/4" (1.109 × 0.750) are the outside dimensions. Sintered metal.
Eahora offers a set of loaded calipers and a set of rotors for $68, but no mention of brake pads. They probably figured everyone would sheer the Allen screws off removing them. I used a 12" vice-grip on the allen wrench for leverage and had to white-knuckle all four of them.

Thanks in advance, Stoood

Correction, 1 7/32" × 3/4" (1.219 × 3/4). Can't see with my bi-focals on, can't see with 'em off, and my slide-rule's broke. Typical retired engineer.
 
Those pads look like what's in the hydraulic 2 piston caliper Shimano brakes in one of my bikes.
 
Found a similar set of pads by doing a search for an ebike brake pad dimensional cross reference. Vitilane's V3 ebike uses the same sized pads as an Eahora XXs.Two sets with springs $10.99, will ship Oct 4. Copper rather than steel sintered for "smoother, quieter, more positive operation and excellent wear characteristics".

Here's their info:

As a foot note, every part on the V3 appears to be interchangeable with an Eahora X5, right down to the derailer mount and guard, luggage rack, and most of the running gear. Only exception is that the V3 has upgraded mag wheels, the addition of turning signals, and a lower sticker price of $949 plus a $50 discount. Same 65nm torque motor, with it GPS'ing at 29mph. Appears to be a cheaper part source for all you eahora fans out there.

Will let y'all know how the brake pads work out.
